Revenge is a dish best served Bieber.
At least that's what it looks like. Late Saturday night, Justin Bieber's verified Twitter account posted what claimed to be the young crooner's phone number to his 4.5 million followers, with a plea to text or call him. Clearly, the number was not his.
Gawker reports that the digits belong to Detroit teen Kevin Kristopik, who, despite the tweet in question being promptly removed, received more than 20,000 text messages.
But was this just a case of hacking or a randomly generated number? Maybe not. Bieber and Kristopik share a checkered Twitter past...
Earlier this summer, Kirstopik admitted hacking the Twitter account of Justin's friend Ryan Butler and using it to get Justin's phone number. We're not sure why.
This seems like ideal revenge. And on the off-chance it was a malicious third party, Twitter hacks, are generally followed by some back-peddling or apologies. But after the removal of Kristopik's number, Bieber just tweeted on like nothing had happened.
Kristopik -- who tweeted "I never asked for it, @justinbieber is a d*** i still like him, but this was so low" before deleting his account -- also documented his trials with this video (via Gawker) of his phone blowing up:
LMFAO! So much win

I'm starting to believe actual Beaver is somewhat normal.

How is this cruel? Do you guys get the context here?
Never mess with powerful people, not that Bieber is powerful but 4 million followers on Twitter o_o. WHAT IF THE GUY GOT 4 MILLION TEXTS?!
That would be cruel

Starting to respect the kid more and more. Don't get me wrong, his music sucks and he should stop calling himself a musician, but from the facts that he's not breaking down and snapping due to the trolling attempts from /b/, getting hit in the head with a water bottle and laughing it off, donating money (sure, he could have given more, but it's still the thought that counts) and now getting revenge on someone that went after his friend. That's pretty cool in my opinion, and one day will probably be the next Justin Timberlake, but just like JT, I will never ever like or willingly listen to his music.
